      ending the SATs effectively abolishes academic merit as a path to college. this leaves exactly two options for young people hoping to enter a top school: win a lottery, or know someone.https://twitter.com/TeresaWatanabe/status/1461732826739396611 …

      The end of an era: @UofCalifornia permanently ends standardized tests for admission, a half century after it adopted the SAT and propelled it into widespread national use. No alternative exam exists that wouldn't create biased results, UC says. https://lat.ms/3261p1F

      Mike Solana Retweeted Kane

      these are state-funded schools. dramatically altering admissions should not be allowed unless the state can demonstrate how exactly their new process won't lead directly to greater bias and, almost certainly, racist admissions standards.https://twitter.com/kane/status/1462628526197194756?s=20 …

      Mike Solana added,

      I wonder what exactly admissions process @UofCalifornia claims is less biased than the standardized testing it just axed? https://twitter.com/TeresaWatanabe/status/1461732826739396611 …

          The reason they’re changing this is because the evidence dictates an SAT based approach is what you are describing. Agreed they need to be clear on what is changing. But this system needed to changehttps://www.forbes.com/sites/markkantrowitz/2021/05/21/how-admissions-tests-discriminate-against-low-income-and-minority-student-admissions-at-selective-colleges/?sh=4b8ae0ad3cc1 …

          They actually commissioned a study that told them to do the exact opposite of what they’re doing
